Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At skinplusiq.co.uk, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to make money or solve financial problems. Betting should be enjoyable and within your means – never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
Please remember that the odds are always in favour of the casino. Only bet what you can comfortably afford, and never chase your losses.
Age Verification
In the United Kingdom, you must be 18 years of age or older to participate in gambling activities, including betting with William Hill or any other licensed operator.
If you are under 18, please do not attempt to gamble. If you have concerns about a young person's gambling, contact GamCare or your local authority for support.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, problem gambling may be developing:
- Gambling with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same level of excitement
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to cut down or stop gambling
- Repeatedly trying and failing to control, cut back, or stop gambling
- Gambling as a way to escape problems or cope with negative feelings
- Lying to family, friends, or therapists about the extent of your gambling
- Chasing losses by returning to gamble another day to recover money lost
- Jeopardising or losing important relationships, jobs, or educational opportunities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or committing fraud to fund gambling
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Feeling unable to stop or cut back despite wanting to
If any of these apply to you, please reach out for help immediately.
